I am attempting to join a workstation at a secondary site to a domain. I have set up the server to the domain and I believe I have set everything up correctly on the secondary site server (sites, ad dc, dns).

However when attempting to add a workstation at this second site I get the below error:---------------------------------------------------------------------------

DNS was successfully queried for the service location (SRV) resource record used to locate a domain controller for domain "ric-consult.com":

The query was for the SRV record for _ldap._tcp.dc._msdcs.ric-consult.com

The following domain controllers were identified by the query:

servergardner.ric-consult.com

ric-dc01.ric-consult.com

However no domain controllers could be contacted.

Common causes of this error include:

- Host (A) or (AAAA) records that map the names of the domain controllers to their IP addresses are missing or contain incorrect addresses.

- Domain controllers registered in DNS are not connected to the network or are not running.

Hamachi is a client based VPN right? So it's a different IP than the local subnet.
You are effectively multi-homing your dc. I would venture to guess that the SRV records are binding to the hamachi IP rather the local LAN IP.
